5.6 Capacity Measurement (capacitor test)

Prior to any capacitor measurement, it must be en-
sured that the capacitor to be tested is completely dis-
charged. Any failure to respect this prescription can
lead to serious corporal injury or instrument damage.
Furthermore, external voltages falsify the measure-
ment result.
Charged capacitors must be discharged using a high-
ohm resistance (not via short-circuit !).
For polarised capacitors, connect the "-" pole to the
Multimeter COM socket.
Resistors or semiconductor paths located in parallel
to the capacitor falsify the measurement result.
Select Ω measurement range using the measurement
function selection dial.
Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the
red test lead to the
